DESCRIPTION
The forests around Bregenz (A) are the dairy of Vorarlberg.
Dairy cows in the summer are on alpine pastures. Their milk is processed in large copper cauldrons, the fascere are still made of larch wood.
The cheeses are characterized by a firm paste, a deep straw-yellow color, a lingering flavor and the aroma of mountain herbs and dried fruit. The presence of tyrosine crystallins contrasts nicely with the creamy, crumbly texture of the paste.
